I’m going to load a bunch of 9mm today! That was my plan, and I couldn’t wait to go shoot a bunch of the ammo with my Glock 17. Everything was going “great” until I noticed the powder level seemed to be getting higher as I was loading. “That just doesn’t look right” I thought. […]

Well now I have that chance, the opportunity to “stretch out and move about the cabin” as it were with my die station utilizations. Following on the heels of […]
A big part of the satisfaction in reloading your own ammunition is the fact that you have made something “custom”. You can customize the economics (Read: you are cheap and want to save money), the ballistics, the recoil, and a multitude of other factors related to ammunition. So why not have some fun with your […]
